Twas twilight as the moon hid behind the grey clouds <br /> <br />The rains that had been pouring all day <br /> <br />Drenched the grounds and drowned the flowers today <br /> <br />I look out as I recall my mothers voice from the past <br /> <br />'Did you know that each raindrops are when angels cry' <br /> <br />I looked at her in dismay.....'NO' <br /> <br />'OH Yes very much so, you see when ever a child dies, the angels that assigned them cries' <br /> <br />I blinked my eyes and looked at her thinking.....how can so many of them die...its not fair <br /> <br />She smiles and looked at me with that knowing smile that mothers have <br /> <br />'Yes they cry because they are happy that their little angles have returned home' <br /> <br />I bow my head to think for awhile...'but what about those left behind' <br /> <br />'Yes I know its sad, but they should not be...because each of us will return when we have God in our lives' <br /> <br />'And those that don't ' I stared at her with frightened eyes <br /> <br />She sighed a broken sigh...looked at me with sad eyes...'they have made their choice, we are not to question why...because that is life my child' <br /> <br />She seamed so sure of all this, I have yet to understand the WHYS....sigh <br /> <br />She hugged me close then I hear the rain and thunder outside as it brings me back from the past <br /> <br />When ever I hear raindrops and thunder it always takes me back to the past...sigh<br /><br />Kaila George<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/when-ever-i-hear-raindrops-and-thunder/
